Told you that a certain thing had done them worlds of good, mentally and physically, wouldn't you feel it worth while to investigate the matter, thoroughly to find out how it might affect you? We have received thousands of testimonials from people who have voluntarily written us of the benefit derived from quitting coffee and using

DIDN'T KNOW That Coffee was Causing Her Trouble.

IPffiSfiffl

The majority of these people had no idea that coffee caused their headaches, stomach troubles, bad nerves, etc., etc., until after the change often at the suggestion of a friend who knew about Postum then they understood. Ask a friend if coffee agrees, and if the aches and ails come from coffee investigate! "There's a Reason"

Postum Cereal Company, Ltd., Battle Creek, Mich.

So common is the use of coffee as a beverage, many do not know that it is the cause of many obscure ails which are often attributed to other things. The easiest way to find out for oneself is to quit the coffee for a while at least, and note results. A Virginia lady found out in this way, and also learned of a new beverage that is wholesome as well as pleasant to drink. She writes: "I am 40 years old and all my life, up to a year and a half ago. I had been a coffee drinker. About ten years ago, I had dyspepsia so bad that often the coffee I drank would sour on my stomach and I could not retain it. "Severe headaches and heart weakness made me feel sometimes as though I were about to die. After drinking a cup or two of hot coffee, not knowing it was harmful, my heart would go like a clock without a pendulum. At other times it would almost stop and I was so nervous I did not like to be alone, and the pity of it all was, I did not know that coffee was causing the trouble. "Reading in the papers that many Iersons were relieved of such ailments by leaving off coffee and drinking Postum. I got my husband to bring home a package. We made it according to directions and I liked the first cup. Its rich snappy flavour was delicious. "I have been using Postum about eighteen months and to my great joy, digestion is good, my nerves and heart are all right, in fact I am a well woman once more, thanks to Postum."' Read "The Road to WeUv.Ule" in Pkgs.

A little Diapepsin relieves bad Stomachs in five minutes. If what you just ate is souring on your stomach or lies like a lump of lead, refusing to digest, or you belch gas, and erustate sour, undigested food or have a feeling of dizziness, heartburn, fullness, nausea, bad taste in mouth and stomach headache this U Indigestion. A full case of Pane's Diapepsin costs only uU cents and will thoroughly cure your out-of-order stomach, and leavsufficient about the house in case some one else in the family may suffer from stomach trouble or indigestion. Ask your pharmacist to show you the formula plainly printed on these 50-cent cases, then you will understand why dyspeptic trouble of all kinds

must go. and why they usually relieve

sour, out-of-order stomachs or indiges

tion in five minutes. Diapepsin is harmless and tastes like candy, though

each dose contains power sufficient to

digest and prepare for assimilation in to the blood all the food you eat; be

sides, it makes you go to the table wl'h a healthy appetite; but. what will

please you most is that you will fel that your stomach and intestines arc clean and fresh, and you will not need

to resort to laxatives or liver pills for

biliousness or constipation.

This city will have many Diapepsin cranks, as some people will call them,

but you will be cranky about this splendid stomach preparation, too, if you ever try a little for indigestion or

gastritis or any other stomach misery. Get some now, this minute, and for

ever rid yourself of stomach trouble

and indigestion.

ELEVEN YEARS' TEST Visitors to tbe exhibition recently bold in Philadelphia to acquaint the public with the dangers of Tuberculous and to demonstrate the methods of prevention and the cure of Consumption, were surprised when informed at the Bureau of Information that no statement of cures was at hand. In the past few years immense sums have been spent and many persons treated by tbe eggs, milk and fresb air advocates, yet curiously, cured cases are rarely found. That Bckman's Alterative positively cures Tuberculosis (Consumption) and stands the test of time is proven by tbe following letters: Philadelphis. Pa., March 25, 1S0S. Gentlemen: My son commenced taking your medicine Feburary 2d, 1806. Previous to that time my family physician bad given him np to die with Consumption. Not being satisfied, I had him taken to a prominent hospital in this city, where tbey informed me thai both upper lobes of bis lungs were diseased. Upon examination of bis sputum they found it full of Bacilli, and said there was no hope of his recovery. He was compelled to give up his position. He commenced to improve almost immediately after taking your remedy, and has now returned to his office work. (Signed) Mrs. E. F. Bird. 208 South Seventh Street. AFTER ELEVEN YEARS. Philadelphia. Pa., January 24. 1000. Gentlemen: Your inquiry as to tbe health of my son Shapleigh received. I can truthfully say he is, and has been in excellent health; never had a return of the disease since taking your Alterative 11 years ago. I cannot speak highly enough of your Alterative, as it saved my boy's life. Respectfully yours, (Signed) Mrs. E. F. Bird, Eckman's Alterative is good for all Throat and Lung Trouble and is on sale

at A. G. I.ukon & Co. and other dr'ie-

prists. Ask for Booklet of cured ians.

or write to Ecknian Mfg. Co., Phila., ta.

Any invention that saves time and labor is bound to come into universal use. Witness the sewing machine, the telephone, the electric light and scores of others. They were received with doubt at first; now every intelligent person takes advantage of them. So Fels-Naptha soaD will some day be used by every woman in this country who washes clothes. More than a million now make it save them time, bother and hard work, and the number is growing every wash-day. If you are not one of these million modern women, you will be some day just as soon as you have courage enough to break away from old-fashioned methods. Every week your delay means another half day of backbreaking labor, coal or gas wasted, danger of colds from steam, unnecessary wear and tear on clothes. With Fels-Naptha you can wash in cold or lukewarm water without hard rubbing, and in half the time it takes by the washboiler method. Follow closely the directions on the red and green wrapper.
